At bot tom his jiatur lwacm and paaelonate, with a weakness ( in Its love ' fr . th wldo.w .

He is th fly on the wheel of th axle of the .chariot crying (hit "What a duat I am raising!" His conduct -i reaard to hla lkw suit his treatment of CoHmew 4n- the-earlier 4 scenes, are all characterised by this Idea ' of self-lmpbrtane. .

At bottom "L - Misanthrope" -Is study : of character. ' Inasmuch as char acter Oa reflected upon character It be comes a comedy; but in lta underlying meanings and its denouraent It Is -any- tnlng but a comedy. "A character study of .manners, it -may perhapa -best b termed.. For ; the same care which has gone, into Its principal role is manifest In Its every person. Oronte,. Phllante, Cellmone, .Arslno, . even th rvants. are distinct and', individualised. Each, tpo."ia viewed from a different angle; each 1 representative. r- ::J. rzr ...-'.

Outside of character development nothing much happens In It. Aloeat run through a series of In cidents, the thread of which 1 hia lava for Cellmen,' bar deceit and -hie final renunciation. V Aa a story It e almost nothing.' Kecall tae play and yoa-re call a number of scenes of pointed as tir and trenchant meaning..

' ; - . . " . A play Ilk this, , brilliant splendid, full bf keen insight may delight th Intellectual few; It will not catch-th popular taste. In the first place, the character ar too dlffleult to graspln th aacoad place, ther la too little ap parent action. Thar Is, In a ward, too Utu red Mood in It; too lltu fir and dash. It may bar th beat of Moller In It - It doe reflect his philosophy, his training' and his schooling. It show him as th deteatar of shams and hy pocrisy, be It- rb .pracleuae hypocrisy of the court r the'lying flattery of th drawing-room. But it Is something Ilk "The School for Scandal"., would o without th screen scene, or "Othello" with ' Moor who did nothing. Ther Is too much talk and didacticism for th theatre of today. -It becomes more a' sermon than a play. ' This Is at least th modem standpoint. Its literary worth I quit another -subject which, does not enter her, sine we ar speaking of ' the acted playa. ' It Is a play which on will always Ilk to remember a having HottI Arranfcd Lik Pun man ear.

That be is a consummate artist has received no bat ter proof than his .conception, and por trayal of Alceste. In dress, manner Ism, In externals and Internals, It waa a splendid, perfectly rounded study. All the gruftness . and weakness, the strength and bigness of th character, very trait and ' trick. -wr carefully and truly projected.
